Which Tranny?

[Taylor_SVT]

3rd Gear went out in my 01 cobra and im in the market for a new tranny, ive been looking at the TKO 500-600 and the T56. wouldnt be going higher than 500rwhp in the future.. car is mostly stock and has 4.10s
links would be great to compare pricing as well!

T56, but thats me. It will hold your power and help keep the rpms down with 4.10's when cruising. Your gas mileage will like it.

 

[SVTPete83]

I have a used one for sale if you're interested.

I hear that the TKOs don't like to shift above 7k rpm if that matters to you. Keep in mind that the gear ratios in the T56 are lower than your 5 speed and I'm not just talking about top gear.

YUP 2.66 1st!

 

[olgreydog7]

Well, the 00R spec has a 2.97 1st. I think the T-45 has a 3.37 IIRC.

 

[Taylor_SVT]

i think i still want to keep it a 5 speed. so the TKO isnt all that great? i just need something to be able to handle the power i want to make later on and last while driving it hard from time to time. any links?

I'm not into Trannies but if I was to choose one it wouldn't be Ru Paul.

^ gets my vote

I have a TKO 600 face plated transmission, my redline is 7400 rpm. I highly doubt yours needs to be face plated but my engine produces 750 whp... So I would reccoment a TKO!

That one caused me to do a double take when I saw who posted it.:rolling:

I know right.



I had a t-56 before with 4.30s. Survived all the racing i did with it but then again i am NA. Doing 75-80 i was at 3k rpms. I guess it all depends on what you want to do with your car.

Promotion built 3650? Good to 700 at the tire? 7K+ rpm capable? :beer:

 

[PSUCOBRA96]

There are three major companies, hanlon, promotion, and the t-45 source that do rebuilds on t-45 3650 style trans Do your research because one of the companies has recently had issues where guys are breaking after only a few passes. Obviously avoid that company unless the issues have been fixed or causes identified.

i dont have alot of experience with these transmissions since this is my first time having this problem i just need something that shifts smooth and can handle around 500-600 hp and that will be exactly it. 5 speed is the route im staying i suppose i like the mgw shifter that i have
